Then, suit up with the provided equipment and start the journey down the Juramento River rapids at 10:30 am. During your ride, you'll have to navigate 10 different Class III rapids, in addition to five slightly-easier Class II rapids, all of them framed by the stunning scenery of the canyon, which looks like a giant open pit in the mountains. The canyon walls are 65 million years old, and used to be huge beaches inhabited by pre-historic animals. The rafting adventures ends two hours later at Paraje Los Lapachos.
